Whitman EKT Program - NO EKT for 2021 - we will see you next year!

Early Kindergarten Transition (EKT) is a school-based, family-oriented summer program designed to increase family engagement in school, improve children’s attendance, and children’s success in school. Children attend school every morning for three weeks.  Parents or caregivers gather twice a week to meet school staff and discuss ways to support their child's learning. Interpreters are hired. Meals are provided. Child Care is offered during parent meeting times.

Join us virtually at our Kinder Connect Event on April 29th 6:30pm - 7:00pm and May 27th 6:30pm - 7:00pm

Email Dollie, our school secretary, if you are interested in joining. Her email address is lovaughn@pps.net or call our office 503.916.6370

Dear PPS Community,

As we continue welcoming our students to hybrid in-person learning, today we want to share a new resource that is available to you. For this project, we ReImagine a Digital Experience – an experience that is easy to navigate, multilingual, user-friendly and welcoming for ALL.

Dear PPS Families,

We have been working hard to put the finishing touches on the safe return of students to our schools for hybrid learning, and are excited to see students in grades 6-8 starting next week! For families whose students will participate in hybrid instruction, we have included information and reminders to help you prepare for the first days of in-person learning this school year.
